GUYSSS IM BACKK IM THE UNICORN BABY 🤭🤭
STOPPPP MY UNICORN BABY🥹🥹i LOVE that you made this for me omg and your takes are actually so interesting and amazing
OKKKK imma say everything without trying to spoil too much
Rue: RUE IS MY WIFEEEEE she’s genuinely my baby and i love her so much. i think what makes rue such a good character is that she’s so complex because she can be selfish, impulsive, and make really hasty decisions, but she also has such a pure heart and goes through so much. i think people sometimes forget addiction makes people hurt others, but that doesn’t automatically make them bad people. i think the show does such a good job showing how addiction completely alters the way someone thinks and acts. like where rue narrates everything and you can tell she understands her own self destruction but still can’t stop herself?? she’s deeply flawed but in a really human way and i think that’s why i love her so much (she so foineeee)
Jules: OOO JULES IS SUCH A SORE SUBJECT when i first watched i really liked her but i have very mixed feelings. i do think she leads rue on at times, BUT i also think she genuinely has feelings for rue. i feel like in season 1 especially she’s very male-centered and constantly seeking validation from men, but i also think that makes sense for her character and her relationship with femininity and wanting to feel desired. like her whole thing with nate/catfishing and the older men i feel like jules is someone who wants love really badly but also fears intimacy in a deeper emotional way. she hurts people while also hurting herself and that makes her very layered but also very realistic but she can be very hard to defend at times.
MADDYYYY MADDY IS SO TEA AND SO BEAUTIFUL WE LOVEEE HERRR. but okay unpopular opinion i think people have huge double standards with her because pretty privilege is so real she definitely gets away with things because she’s charismatic and gorgeous. like the lying about being taken advantage of situation in season 1 was genuinely messed up but i also think maddy is such a sad character underneath everything because i feel like her confidence is partly a performance. the relationship with nate is so abusive and toxic and i think a lot of her identity is wrapped up in wanting to feel chosen and adored. she reminds me of manny santos from degrassi or adrian from secret life where they’re messy and complicated but also really charismatic
CASSIE :( OKAY CASSIE IS MY ANGEL because i genuinely think people misunderstand her so badly. i feel like so much of her character comes from wanting to be loved and believing her body is the only thing that makes people stay. like the flashbacks with her dad absolutely broke me because you can tell abandonment affected her so deeply and i feel like people reduce her to “boy crazy” when really she’s someone desperate for love and validation and stability. even the way she’s constantly sexualized by everyone around her made me so sad because she wants to be seen for more than her body but also doesn’t know how to separate herself from that attention :(
kat: honestly i don’t have too much to say because i remember feeling confused by her character like i understood what they were trying to do with confidence, sexuality and insecurity, but sometimes her storyline made me a little confused and i never fully connected to it emotionally
lexi: lexi deserved so much better i feel like she cared about rue really deeply but rue definitely took advantage of lexi’s kindness sometimes. lexi feels like someone who spends her whole life watching everyone else instead of actually being seen herself like she’s always there for people while quietly feeling lonely and overlooked and i just wanted someone to appreciate her more
NATE… OH NATE genuinely terrifying because he’s SUCH a manipulative character and the scene of him shaking after the fight with his dad actually stunned me too because it showed how psychologically messed up he really is. like you can literally see how much trauma and anger he carries from his dad and how warped his idea of masculinity/love is. he scares me because of how calculated he is and how good he is at manipulating people emotionally and theres real men that are Nate in real life. jacob elordi being handsome unfortunately distracts people from the fact nate is ACTUALLY insane
Well this all guys I hope you enjoyed it cause I know I did anywaysss those are my thoughts i fear i take fictional people way too seriously but i had soooo much fun typing this
